Steppin' Down

Sometimes things don't work outBut that's how life is, sonAll them little miseriesCan keep you on the runJust remember that old saying'Bout the round hole and square pegAnd put out the fireCall in the dogsHead it on back to Bowleg- From "Bowleg" by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I'm stepping down as Chair of the OAUG Fusion Council. It's part of my effort to simplify life so I can focus on getting some health issues related to the diabetes thing under control. The Fusion Council won't be rid of me, because I plan to continue as a Council member. Nor do I plan to stop blogging about Oracle Fusion, the E-Business Suite, or things related (some just barely) to either subject. It's just that, in order to continue providing the highest level of value to OAUG members and the general Oracle user community, the Council needs a focused leader...and my focus for the next few months will be elsewhere.

Once I have things under control, I'll renew my engagement with OAUG leadership in the manner that makes the most sense. But for now, I have to step back from a few things and focus on personal matters. Time to head it on back to Bowleg.

We have a very capable person stepping in to take my place as Chair, but that's not my news to share. Watch OAUG's website for news on the change in leadership for the Fusion Council.

On behalf of the global OAUG Community our grateful thanks to you for chairing the OAUG Fusion Council since its inception. We look forward to your continued leadership in OAUG, perhaps as a member of the Board!
